With as much room as he's been getting on these punts he should be averaging more than 5 yards per return...

[Big Texas]

So are we truly content with our #2 WR?

Outside of Andre Johnson...the only other completions have been to 3 TEs and a RB...

[Arky]

Quick slant to Ward goes inc.

Roethlisberger can't find a receiver and scrambles for about 3. 3rd and 7 coming up.

Pass is broken up by Nolan. 4th and 7 coming up. Steelers to go for it.

Pass is tipped by Barwin! Texans take over on downs! 2:33 left the game.

[Arky]

Foster for 2. Steelers use their last timeout at the 2:28 mark. 2nd and 8 coming up.

Foster for 2. Will make it 3rd and 6 at the 2 minute warning.

--------------

Foster gets about 5 so the Texans will have to punt on 4th down. Texans use a timeout, have one left.

Punt is downed at the Steeler 1 yard line. 1:02 left in the game.

[Arky]

Roethlisberger's pass is INT'ed but they are going to get Watt for roughing the passer. Steelers ball at the 16.

Pass to Brown good to the Steeler 28, 1st down. 42 seconds left.

Dump off to Redman gets 12.

Roethlisberger spikes it with 19 seconds left.

Deep pass is INT'ed by Allen! No flags!

Texans kneeling it out.

Final score:

Texans 17, Steelers 10

[barrett]

Terrible call. Pouncey has a hand in his facemask and then blocks him into ben.

[Big Texas]

There better be triple coverage on Wallace

[Big Texas]

Talk about needed redemption...Jason Allen needed that pick...

[barrett]

I don't think any of the penalties against us were wrong but Pittsburgh could be called for holding on every play.

[Arky]

Foster for about 2. 2nd and 8 coming up.

Foster for 2 more. 3rd and 6 coming up.

Timeout Texans with 3:55 left in the game.

Schaub's deep pass down the sideline to JJ is broken up. Texans have to punt.

Steeler's Brown returns the punt to the Texan 48.
